Allies Squeeze Trap Jaws on Beaten, Struggling Foe
Washington May 29 AP Gen Hoyt Vandenberg said the United States must keep a force able to destroy Russia s air power promptly. Testifying at the MacArthur hearings he called the Air Force a pig stick guarding the world while warning the current force risks obsolescence as Russia expands air power and atomic weapons. He clashed with Sen Hickenlooper over MacArthur criticism and defined Korea victory as unification under a democratic government with some Korean Chinese treaty. He noted some calls for F 84s for Korea were unfilled but rejected implying widespread U S air losses from old planes.
